Swap a SuperDuty Sterling 1-ton rear axle into TJ

 and eliminate the trackbar

Artec Industries is excited to announce the Triangulated TJ Sterling Axle Swap Kit. This heavy duty 3/8" and 1/4" truss is designed to take serious abuse and reinforce your entire axle. The accompanying brackets provide the OEM coil, lower control arm and shock locations, but triangulate the upper control arms which eliminates the need for a trackbar. He also offer this kit with a HIGH CLEARANCE option that raises the LCA and shock brackets above the bottom of the axle tube.
 
The SuperDuty Sterling rear axle offers a huge improvements in every category over the factory Dana 35 and 44. 

NOTES: 
  • This kit is a compilation of some of our existing brackets that are sold both individually and with other kits. Some slight modification may be necessary to the brackets for use with the Sterling axle and the Sterling Modular truss. See below for a list of parts and what may need minor trimming.
  • **This kit does not include factory style anti-sway bar mounts. The 3rd member on the axle is too large to fit a factory TJ anti-sway bar. Aftermarket sway bars for the rear will need to be used.
  • This kit triangulates the Upper Control Arms (UCA) of the TJ meaning you will not be able to use the factory rear UCA brackets on the frame and may need to make new arms themselves. See related items below for products that will help you make this change. 
 

Features include:

  • 3/8" thick truss top and 1/4" thick truss gussets and 1/4" thick brackets for much higher strength than the factory bracket and other aftermarket brackets. Precision CNC cut and bent for great fitment.*
  • Includes all the brackets necessary for a complete axle swap including upper and lower control arm mounts, shock mounts, and coil spring mounts.**
  • Eliminates the trackbar by using triangulated upper control arms. Not for use with OEM control arms. New upper links and frame side brackets will be needed.*
  • Save hours of installation time. Outer brackets just need to line up to truss, no guessing and measuring involved.
  • Truss Upper Link Mount width - 2.63" for 1.25" rod end kit or other large joints.
  • High-Clearance option provides flat LCA brackets and shock mounts to reduce rock damage. Not for use with OEM control arms.
  • High-Clearance Shock mounts flip bolt orientation to perpendicular to axle tube providing more rotation without binding. Upper shock mount relocation may be necessary.
  • Overall low profile design means your axle is stronger, sleeker, easier to fit into any vehicle, and less likely to interfere with vehicle components.
What's included:
  • TR1005 Sterling 10.25 Rear Modular Truss
  • BR1045 Rear TJ coil Perches and retainers (pair)
  • Truss Upper Link Mount - BR1044
  • OPTION - Choose 1 of the following for LCA brackets and Shock mounts
    • OEM position - TJ8804 Shock Mounts and TJ8805 LCA Brackets
    • High Clearance - BR1049 Shock Mounts* and BR1078 LCA Brackets*
NOTE: This kit requires general welding and fabrication skills. Welding should only be done by a competent welder. Artec Industries implies no guarantees or warranties and is not liable for improper installation.
*Some grinding and fitment may be required when installing this kit. Every axle varies slightly and some fabrication may be required. Will require brake line relocation to fit.

🧾 Rock Rig Supply Return Policy

At Rock Rig Supply, we get it — sometimes a part just doesn’t fit the build, or a project takes a left turn halfway up the hill. We’ve been there. That’s why our return policy keeps things simple, fair, and flexible (because real-world wrenching isn’t always perfect).


🕒 1. Return Window

  • Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery.

  • Items must be unused, uninstalled, and in original condition with all packaging.

  • Every return gets inspected before we process it — we don’t cut corners, and we don’t want you to either.


🔧 2. Custom & Built-to-Order Parts

  • Custom, one-off, or built-to-order parts carry a 50% restocking fee.

  • They’ve been made just for you, so we can only take them back if they’re unused and still in sellable shape.


💰 3. Refunds & Store Credit

  • You can choose between a refund or store credit after your return is approved.

  • Some items may have an additional restocking fee depending on condition.

  • Refunds typically appear 7–10 business days after approval, depending on your bank.


🚚 4. Return Shipping

  • If we messed up (wrong item, damaged, or defective), we’ll cover return shipping and send you a replacement on our dime.

  • If it’s a “changed my mind” or “wrong fit” situation, you’ll cover return shipping.

  • Not sure which way it goes? Shoot us an email at rockrigsupply@gmail.com and we’ll help you sort it out.


⚙️ 5. Used or Installed Products

We know how it goes — sometimes you bolt something up and realize it’s not gonna work.
If the part’s been used or installed, email us first at rockrigsupply@gmail.com.
Returns for used parts are handled case-by-case at our discretion because we understand that not every project goes as planned.


🧰 6. Garage Sale Items

Our Garage Sale section is full of awesome deals — open-box, blemished, and used parts that still have plenty of life left.

  • All Garage Sale items are sold “as-is.”

  • No returns, refunds, or warranties on these.

  • We do our best to describe the condition, but little quirks or wear come with the territory.
    You’re scoring a deal, and we’re clearing the shop — win-win.


🔄 7. Exchanges & Buy-Backs

  • Unused, uninstalled items qualify for free exchanges or store credit.

  • If a part’s been installed or opened, we may offer a buy-back depending on its condition and resale potential.


🚫 8. Non-Returnable Items

  • Gift cards, Garage Sale items, and consumables (fluids, sealants, etc.) are non-returnable.

  • Items missing packaging or showing heavy use may be denied or refunded at a reduced rate.


📬 9. How to Start a Return

  1. Email rockrigsupply@gmail.com with:

    • Your order number

    • Photos (if damaged or defective)

    • A short note about what’s going on

  2. We’ll reply with return instructions or a prepaid label (if applicable).

  3. Once inspected, we’ll issue your refund, store credit, or exchange.


💪 10. The Rock Rig Guarantee

We actually run the parts we sell — they’ve been hammered, flexed, and tested on real trails. If something doesn’t hold up or doesn’t meet your expectations, reach out. We’ll make it right, because that’s how we’d want to be treated.
